The Dream 2 16/12/2011 by adeeyoyo 26 Comments . Birds abound Strewn around On the ground They don’t cry Mute acceptance in their eyes Too little air The trees are bare The drought severe Grass seeds depleted The birds are defeated They cannot fly Exhausted they lie Too tired to try .

How sad Denise, birds too tired to fly will soon become victims, as their only escape mechanism is gone.

Denise, what a horrific picture. So sad.
If you experienced it, perhaps this dream has connections with East Africa.
Thank you.

I don’t think East Africa has anything to do with it, John.

Yes, Carl, but that was before man started destroying the environment… How many species has man made extinct and how many more are on their way out?

Sometimes am quite hopeful, Bb, but then I hear how they are quibbling about who’s going to pay for what and I get so despondent…
